Cameroon legend, Roger Milla has predicted an intense battle between his country and Nigeria. The two heavyweights of African football will do battle in the Round of 16 of AFCON 2023 at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium, Abidjan, on Saturday.
The Super Eagles won the last two meetings between two teams at the AFCON finals. But Milla, who was part of the Cameroon side that defeated the Super Eagles in the final in 1984 and 1988, refused to stick out his neck on who won the game.
“It’s going to be an intense game. It’s a game between two brothers who know each other very well,” Milla said on RTI.
“It’s difficult to predict who is going to win the game at the moment.”
